🌟 Where are the confident children who want to go out and win! 12.1 - 7yr old - Welsh cob mare - Available September after the sunshine tour 🌟
Poppy is THE most incredible pony, what she lacks in height she makes up for in heart and spirit! She is a 7 year old, 12.1 Welsh cob, This pony came to us 18 months ago, having just been turned away for a year. She hadn’t done lots, but boy could we see her potential, especially in jumping. We have spent the last year+ slowly working with her to become the pony she is now . My daughter has suddenly grown and so we upped the anti going from jumping the cross poles to 70cm in very short succession not only did she look after my daughter through this fast transition she is proving to be REALLY scopey!
Poppy has been schooled weekly by a small professional adult and we have spared NO expense in her continued development. she has come on leaps and bounds with her schooling and has the most beautiful flicky trot! I know this will only continue to progress in the right home.
Poppy is so well exposed to the buzzy atmosphere of shows and will behave beautifully all day! Again this is something we have worked extremely hard on, as she would get bit overwhelmed when we first got her, but now she is a true professional. She will stand happily and politely at the trailer with her net, or on the trailer once she has finished her classes, she really doesn’t mind. While we go off for prize giving and the obligatory photo stand!
Poppy loves friends! She is currently at a yard where we have the luxury of single turn out but they can all interact with and love Poppy. She was in a mixed herd prior to us and will happily get on with mares and geldings.
Poppy is bold talented and super honest, she really is a one in a million type, she will go fast against the clock and turn on a six pence, but she is stong and knows her job, for this reason she would NOT suit a nervous child, she will look after a novice but they must be willing to match Poppy’s eagerness. Poppy will never be a plod along. And we want someone who will love her for this!
Poppy is a regular member of pony club and has just bagged a team placing for the pony club regional champs! We are also at pony club with Poppy’s previous owners, so her full history is known.
We Can get pony club references for her, and a very supportive yard who would also vouch for what a little superstar she is.
My hope for Poppy and my daughter was to be out doing some BS, but unfortunately due to her age and size, we have run out of time, however in the right home I have no doubt she would excel on the BS circuit!

Now have given all the pros I will give you the not such pro bits - still not bad though just totally honest!
- 🦄 Poppy can be strong so not suitable for a novice, she is not unsafe she just needs a bold rider to match her energy, my daughter was a nervous novice when we got her and is now so confident.
- 🦄 Poppy suffers with mallanders (not sallanders) which is easily managed through a very simple hard feed diet and cream. (No CPL) they don’t get sore just a-bit dry
- 🦄 For this reason Poppy is kept clipped out, she LOVES the body clipping . But needs domo gel for the legs (she is super receptive to it and it works like a dream) she is soo smart clipped too! A proper little show pony.
- 🦄 my daughter isn’t the biggest fan of dressage and so Poppy could do with some schooling in this area, she can do a lovely test at home but needs to work on this out and about at shows. Once this is accomplished she will be an ODE superstar!
- 🦄 We actually don’t want to part with this gorgeous girl, it’s only because my daughter has grown that we are here. So ugly crying from us is very likely
- 🦄 We will be very selective of who she goes to, as we couldn’t love this pony any more! We want her to continue this Incredible journey she is on, and she deserves the best home where her true potential can be unlocked.
